of the Sky. In his autobiography, The Soul School, he alluded to a perceived distance between himself and the Baháʼí community during the war, as he imagined that his connection to the war effort put him at odds with the sentiments of many of them. About a decade after the war, and immediately after Murchie's book Song of the Sky won him acclaim as a Book of the Month Club author, he began to be more public about his religion. Several news stories in the wider media noted it, and the official Baháʼí news outlet noted the publicity. In 1964, he toured Iran visiting several sites holy to Baháʼís. Diary notes of his travels became the basis of a series of articles in the 1960s and later. In 1958 he became even more public with his proclamation in the Chicago Tribune "I am a Baháʼí".

Murchie would be visible aiding various Baháʼí talks and classes of study on the religion occasionally from the 1960s into the 1980s, and would publish many more articles related to the religion printed in Baháʼí News: A visit to Persia across 5 issues(again, further from his 1964 trip) Nayriz – Scene of Vahid's Heroism, The House of Quddus in Mashhad, Journey through Northern Iran, Máh-Kú and Tabriz – Imprisonment and Martyrdom.
